Description
2007 marked the 100th anniversary of PABLO PICASSO'S painting LES DEMOISELLES D'AVIGNON. The DEMOISELLES triggered the invention of CUBISM -- and ignited an artistic revolution. Form broke free. Abstraction erupted. In this short essay, architect/painter JEF7REY HILDNER revisits Picasso's landmark canvas, x-rays its organizing principles, and discovers new ... PICASSO LESSONS.
PICASSO LESSONS builds visual literacy. The essay shows up on the syllabi at schools of art, architecture, and design at major colleges and universities. Teachers who take their students to see Picasso's painting at The Museum of Modern Art in New York City require them to bring a copy of this pamphlet.
